What has been your favourite crow memory this season?

[imagifED]

1) Appointing an 8 man leadership group with many underperforming or talentless players.
2) Resigning the head coach without him ever making the finals in 4 previous seasons and after a bad Round 1 defeat.
3) Allowing Tom Stewart to intercept the ball a gazillion times and in doing so destroy a young talented player's confidence.
4) Losing to bottom placed Richmond at home in prime time without many of their best players.
5) Snubbing a well performing talented high draft pick. When finally selecting him, play him as a sub who does not even come on the field potentially causing him to return home.
6) Older underperforming player publicly shaming a younger decently performing player with then younger player getting dropped, potentially causing him to return home.

Please suggest other great memories.

Nicks post match pressers, so many of them are treasured memories of the 2024 season, particularly after those Nicks specialty, the honourable loss to a top eight team

[OzSparrow]

The fact that it is almost over!
Can only hope that we get poleaxed this weekend by the best side running around by far and the 2024 Premier.
Then get to watch Nicks' presser after the game. Gold. Might record it for posterity.
Cant wait for the 2024 Club Presentations.

Only one: Sam Draper worm dance, then Rachele kicking the winning goal in the next meeting.

 

[SugarShane]

Hard to go past re-signing a loser coach after losing the first game and a history of losing so that his impending contract wouldn't distract him from losing the first 4 games of the season.

Like Shoresy says, 'set the tone'. And **** me if that didn't set the tone for the season.

 

[dplggr47]

Continually playing Smithers in the early part of the season despite continuous bad performances, all so he can reach his milestone game...but then still selecting him afterwards.

AFC has history in that regard. Thommo and VB and Edwards?

Highlights/Lowlights: this week’s debacle aside, Silvers’ 5aa interview/made-up review & the fly deserves special mention but for mine that Good Friday Fremantle shitshow won’t be beat, it was 3 games into an AFL season and Nicks goes into the post-game presser and blames the result on every player on the list; all 44, being out of form, I mean wtf

What a start to a season it was.

 

[Bovo]

Round 5 vs Carlton
Round 19 vs Bombers

Won both away by 2 points I think

 

[Pea Nut]

Rankine getting pinged for running too far. How many running too far free's have you seen since ??

More of a Rach thread thing but did Rach kick a clutch winning goal twice this year?

Seems very team first if true.

 

[Salibahandball]

It was great in February or whenever it was in the preseason, when Olsen promised everything was in place for a big year. All the pieces were in place, no excuses etc.
That aged well.

The Pepsi and blowfly moments were clearly the best

 

[tinman]

Easily watching the first showdown in Hue Vietnam with some family and friends. We weren’t expected to win.

We were in a dodgy sports bar (nowhere else has AFL) drinking a few Huda beers. It was a fantastic afternoon.

In amongst the disappointment and despair there have been glimmers of joy to cling onto.

Onward and upwards.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Resigning a cooked Sloane and him then retiring.
Resisigning Nicks to take us to 15th.

 

[CrowToon]

Winning close games in Melbourne vs Carlton and Essendon.


Oh **** look at me not reading the tone of the thread.

How about a 17-way tie between each week I got to read Murphs name on the team sheet. Always a good time for me and my oils.

Our fixtures - never again will we have such a good ride.
